Midtjylland overwhelmed Sundby 7-0 in the Danish Cup Round of 32 on Thursday evening, a result that leaves the visitors advancing while the hosts face questions about their direction. The match took place at Sundby's ground on 2026-09-10, and the visitors made no mistake in converting their dominance into goals. It was a comprehensive performance from start to finish.
J. Emefile opened the scoring in the 29th minute, and K. Watjen doubled the advantage just five minutes later. Sundby struggled to establish any rhythm, with their attacking attempts few and far between. The hosts had no answer to the pace Midtjylland brought.
Watjen added his second before half-time in the 42nd minute, and Emefile rounded off the first period in the 45th. M. Rajovic then struck from the penalty spot in the 45+2 minute, and Sundby had to regroup at the break. By then the gap was already insurmountable.
and here's the thing — we had called for a Midtjylland victory with 96 per cent confidence, and the performance justified that certainty. The away side controlled every facet of the game, from possession to territorial advantage. To be fair, Sundby offered little resistance at any point.
Midtjylland registered 108 attacks compared to Sundby's 74, and their shooting accuracy of 0.42 told the story. The hosts managed only one shot on target with a 0.2 accuracy rate, while the visitors found the back of the net seven times from ten shots on target. F. Etim added a seventh goal in the 68th minute to complete the tally.
The scoreline reflects a performance that will go down as one of the most dominant of this cup campaign. Midtjylland's seven-goal margin leaves them firmly on course, while Sundby must now examine what went wrong across all areas of the pitch.
